I ignore them, but are they trying to raise money? Are they employees or volunteers?

It was a fudge cake that set this train of thinking in motion.. Last time I had this fudge cake, it was great... I'd have given it 4 out of 5. But this time, it was more like a 2 as it was messy and not well put together, misshapen too. Yet, it was the same fudge cake.... Perhaps it's just me who has these strange thoughts? less

They were once the domain of the big three TV networks, then cable came along, and premium channels, and the scope/intensity of the awards universe expanded, then the internet, etc. It’s now been at least a couple of decades since I last had even the slightest interest in awards ceremonies
Are entertainment-related awards ceremonies still the Big Deal that they used to be? If not, why not?~ less

I had the ventilation improved to carry out the draft, muggy air, the noise-canceling acoustics diminish the echoing of the screams, tract lighting has been installed so there’s no more stumbling around in the dark, the restraints are fur-lined, the vicious guard dogs are fed weekly instead of biweekly, the locking mechanisms are now rubber-lined to cut down on the harshness of hearing them slammed shut, I’ve incorporated more fragrances of massage oils into the rotation . . .~ less

Why should I care? Deep down, I don't. The album remains my favorite. And I really like all of their albums.It's interesting at times for me -- sometimes being on the outside, looking in at everyone else who seem to be saying and thinking and doing what I seemingly "should" be saying and thinking and doing -- at odds with what everyone else says and thinks and does, i.e., "We can all agree that 'Around the Sun' is the WORST R.E.M. album." And then they all argue about what is the best R.E.M. album. And I "sit" there on the other side of the "room," thinking, "Uh. . . well, I guess I don't have much to add to the argument of the best album since my best is the worst." Ha!:)And, of course, yes -- I've been listening to "Around the Sun" on 'repeat' the whole time I posted this question, ha! :) less
